Eitan Biran, his family's only 6-year-old survivor of the Mottarone tragedy, was taken from Italy to Israel in what the Israeli media calls a "suspected kidnapping" by relatives in Israel. This was reported by TV Kan according to which the legal guardian of the little boy and paternal aunt Aya Biran-Nirko, who lives in Pavia, filed a complaint with the Italian police stating that "the child was kidnapped by his grandfather Shmuel Peleg". Eitan - according to the reconstruction of TV Kan - would have left the house in Pavia with his grandfather this morning but without returning in the afternoon "as had been agreed".Her paternal aunt Aya Biran-Nirko - according to TV Kan - repeatedly tried to contact her grandfather until she received a message from him informing that "Eitan has returned home" to Israel. The same source then added that Aya Biran-Nirko also subsequently received a message from Peleg's lawyer confirming that little Eitan had arrived in Israel. The trip from Italy, according to the broadcaster, was made possible by the fact that the grandfather, Shmuel Peleg, continued to have the child's Israeli passport in contrast to the provisions of an Italian judge. For months the little boy had been at the center of a dispute between his aunts. Already last August the maternal aunt Gali Peri in an interview had made a harsh complaint in the Israeli media stating that "Eitan was stolen from a family who did not know him, which previously had not been close to him in any way "and immediately afterwards he added that the" child was hostage in Italy ".
"We are shocked and incredulous, we could not imagine it would go that far". This was stated to ANSA by the lawyer Armando Simbari, who with Cristina Pagni and Massimo Sana assists Aya Biran Nirko, aunt and guardian of little Eitan, the only 5-year-old child who survived the Mottarone cable car accident that his maternal grandfather Shmulik Peleg would have kidnapped. "For now, I can only say that this afternoon the child had a meeting with his maternal relatives and that he did not return to his aunt's home in Pavia at the appointed time", claims the lawyer. Immediately after the accident at the Mottarone cable car, Eitan was entrusted in the first instance to his paternal aunt Aya by the Turin juvenile court. And once discharged fromRegina Margherita children's hospital in Turin was welcomed into his home in the province of Pavia, where first grade began on Monday. The maternal relatives of the child, the only survivor of the collapse of the cable car in which fourteen people died including the parents, the two-year-old brother and two grandparents, explained that they were taken by surprise by these decisions and last August they turned to an Israeli lawyer, Ronen Dlayahu, to ask for the adoption of the child "so that he grows up in Israel - they said - as his mother, Tali ardently desired". The Israeli embassy has also confirmed that little Eitan is in Israel. This was stated by the lawyer Armando Simbari, who with Cristina Pagni and Massimo Sana assists Aya Biran Nirko, aunt and tutor of little Eitan,the 6-year-old child (and not 5 as previously written) the only survivor of the Mottarone cable car accident. "Yes, there would be a confirmation from the Israeli embassy", says the lawyer Simbari when asked by ANSA, recalling that after the legal action started in August by the child's maternal relatives, the Italian authorities "had inhibited any movement in the area.
